Several dozens of masked Palestinians began throwing rocket and Molotov cocktails at police forces in the Isawiya neighborhood in East Jerusalem on Monday afternoon. Police pushed the rioters back through the streets by using crowd control measures.

Meanwhile, more masked Arab youths threw stones and fireworks at police forces at the Mughrabi Bridge at the Temple Mount compound opened for visitors Monday morning. The rioters were arrested, adding to 12 that were detained overnight for involvement in riots in the city.

The rioters at the Al-Aqsa Mosque also set up blockades at both entrances of the compound to prevent police from closing the doors. Local police, Israel Police special patrol unit officers, and Border Guard officers eventually managed to break in and arrest the masked protestors inside the mosque.
